Description:

This gentle poem from NCERT's early Hindi primer captures a young child's simple joy and imagination while swinging in the yard. As the child asks their mother to set up the jhoola and begins to swing higher and higher, the surrounding trees and branches seem to sway along too. In the child's mind, the swing becomes a vehicle, carrying them over faraway cities and even up into the clouds, blending everyday play with childhood wonder.
